Great Tey Community Pool – Registered Charity No. 1174412
Treasurer’s Report prepared by Helen Dow
For the period ending 5-4-23
The opening balance brought forward from last year is £27,479.88
Income amounted to £5,429.02
During the last financial year, we launched a Crowdfunding platform to generate interest in the project and raise more funds; this was reasonably successful raising £1,806.12 but without social media, the coverage was limited. Once we have a better platform in place for marketing the project, we will launch another crowdfunding platform and aim to get matched funding from someone like Sport England or similar.
The fund-raising subcommittee remained active, organising many different events; the community have given many donations from a variety of events and incentives planned by themselves voluntarily outside of the committee’s fundraising activities, as well as personal donations. We received several donations from Amazon Smile; unfortunately, this scheme has now ended.
Thank you to everyone on the fund-raising subcommittee, and members of the community, for all donations and sums gratefully received.
Several funding applications have been applied for during the year; some we have heard that we have not been successful, others we wait to hear the outcome. The Funding subcommittee will continue to work hard on submitting funding applications once the Heads of Terms have been signed off; severe delays have been experienced on these due to the Diocese and their solicitor having more pressing priorities.
Expenditure amounted to £1,639
This expenditure was for the first invoice for legal fees. The Primary School paid the gross invoice to the solicitor and reclaimed the purchase VAT. Pool funds reimbursed the net amount to the school. These fees were paid from £20,000 grant funding that we received from the Hyperlocal Fund from 360.org; a progress monitoring report was sent to them advising the fund managers of the spend, and frequent progress monitoring reports will be sent as further funds are spent from this grant.
There were no claims for reimbursement of trustee’s expenses during this financial year.
The closing balance carried forward at 5-4-23 is £32,908.94 as per statement no.34 dated 1/3/23; once the above cheque clears the balance in the bank will be £31,269.94. To meet the financial processes and budget/year end of the school, we were not permitted to pay our cheque to the school before 1/4/22.
Should the project not succeed, any unspent funds remaining in the account will be donated to a worthy cause in the community; this will be decided by trustees and recorded in meeting minutes.
